Nuremberg: the Movie, the Book, and its Author

In this episode of Terribly and Terrifyingly Normal, we speak with Jack El-Hai, author of The Nazi and the Psychiatrist, the book that inspired the movie Nuremberg.

Together with Prof. Alette Smeulers (University of Groningen), we explore:

• How Jack El-Hai researched and wrote the book

• His insights on Hermann Göring and Douglas Kelley

• What the movie Nuremberg gets right — and what it leaves out

• Whether Nazi leaders were “ordinary men”

• What this history teaches us about perpetrators of mass atrocities
